Current Affairs The 2020 United States Presidential Election

I think the more egregious problems are with they system they’re all working within, rather than the party. The GOP has HUGE systemic advantages currently.

I know, and that they have them is down to the Democrats. Facebook and Twitter were about 1% as influential in 2008 as they are now. 2008 Fox was much less insane than 2020 Fox.

He has risen.

Probably voted in by anti masker n’all.

I dont understand US politics no matter how much I try to follow it!

But they have been saying votes can still arrive legitimately in some places until Friday. If that's the rules then Trump hasn't a point. I dont understand why that's allowed by that's neither here nor there, the rules are the rules.

Beause you’re allowed (in those places) to post your vote on Election Day.

I shall not concede for that match either, fight until the end is my motto this week.

Apparently Ann Arbor MI area is in big for Biden.

So, I’m seeing lots of tweets about “democracy being dead” and “this isn’t how it’s meant to work”

I haven’t tracked the results or anything, so could someone please explain?

if more people voted for Trump than Biden, then - as crap as that is - it’s still democracy? Or are people moaning about how the US system works or has something else happened?

Looking like Biden will win the popular vote by ~5m

A broken, broken system

I'm still confident that Biden has won this. @Paris says relax.

They haven't

I don’t understand how Biden is now bookies underdog? He only needs two of Wi, Michigan and PA, and he is on course to win all three?

Not really, though. It may need fine tuning, but ~10 metro areas deciding an election isn't good for anyone.

Bookies respond to markets. I don't know that he'd take all 3, but it's not really relevant to their odds I don't think

Is he?

Started to think people don't actually know.

We’re doomed.
